“The systems can be added on top of an existing recipe to intensify a specific functionality,” says Richard Leboucher,Puratos R&D Director USA. “This enables bakers to influence one specific characteristic in the dough or bread without reformulating the entire recipe. For example, the ‘melting’ system improves the eating characteristics by making the bread easier to swallow, while the ‘moist’ system improves freshness by increasing softness and moisture. There’s even a system designed to improve texture after reheating or defrosting in the microwave. It is also possible to combine systems to custom create a texture."
